This is very interesting as allusive as Black Axe appeared to be. 

I remember the YouTube video that Prof Falola shared a couple of years ago.
They seemed almost untouchable.

I don't have the link, but it is still on Youtube the title was Black Axe Nigeria's mafia cult produced by BBC.
Interpol's move on them is impressive.

On an aside, I often wonder if the movie & series King of Boys took some of their narrative and aesthetic from the mythical aura surrounding this organized crime organization.
